Rock, Planet, Beta

Rock, Planet, BetaVanu Soveriegnty. Eurydome (EU)
"Purple: Because if you are going to
fight in an endless war on an alien
planet, might as well do it with style.
Also lasers."Purple Wednesdays
Eurydome Server.
From 8pm GMT.
Join us on Mumble (details below)

UPDATE 08/10: VS Outfit now on Eurydome server- Outfit invites will need to be sent again (see below)

UPDATE 22/09: We have moved the Thyone server
- Outfit invites will have to be sent again (see below).
UPDATE 19/09: Character wipe & server rename
Have a look here for details of which server we end up in.

UPDATE 14/09: Outfit invites now only work if you are online.
-> If you have someone in the outfit(s) on your friends list and they are online, drop them a whisper to ask for an invite: Anyone in the outfit should be able to send invites.

Friend invites work offline. Outfit invites do not. Unless anyone can think of a better system, friend me up in game (CooperVS) and I'll send an invite to the Vanu outfit when people are online. Next get together I'll put some time aside at the start to invite anyone there.

The best option, however, will probably be to drop into the Mumble channel for the faction you want to join and ask nicely. Any member of an Outfit should be able to send invites.

Original message:

The beta is now in full swing and most vets or those with twitter / PCG keys should be in.

Rather than limiting ourselves to one single faction from the off, I imagine most are gonna want to toy around as Smurfs, Barneys and Elmos.So if you fancy meeting up with other RPS folk, post character name, faction & server below so that we can add others to the in-game friends list.

For those who hate purple, hate lasers, and hate hovertanks (fools), there also exists an New Conglomerate outfit also on EU Beta 01; "Rock, Traitor Shotgun"

(Note: We are now NDA free)

If people want to set up outfits for differing factions / servers, that's probably a good thing. They serve at the moment as a kind of "shared friends list". If anyone starts one, post it here and I'll add it to this top post.

New Player Guide Here
Although this is a relaxed outfit and we're all learning this game together. What that guide misses is lesson 1) Immediate, fiery death from the Galaxy pilot who didn't see that massive bit of red alien coral in an otherwise flat, empty dessert is fun.

Many of us use Mumble for communication when playing (in game VOIP is still a bit wonky, but serves purpose when needed):Details of the mumble server can be found here
Note:
Barneys = Vanu Sovereignty
Smurfs = New Conglomerate
Elmos = Terran Republic

Also beware everyone can hear you because the voice comms are on by default (at least for me, had to manually switch them off), so some dude commented on the stuff he could hear from my mic, which was a little embarrassing, even though it's not particularly evident whose voice comm transmissions you are receiving.

Finally registered with the forums to post here, been a regular reader of the main RPS blog for ages!

I'm currently soloing around EU1 - VS - Simbo (and on EU3 - NC - Jerry when the stutter and lag gets too much!) getting a feel for the game and the classes it'd be great to group up if anyone is around.
